Canadian Goose

This Canadian Goose was among a whole flock in this little pond. There were so many Geese that it was hard to pick just one out and get him alone.

If you've never seen one of these Geese, they're about as big as a Pelican and they can be pretty nasty at times. They have no problem chasing humans. This flock is in a park and used to humans, so they had no problem with us being there.

Canadian Geese are migratory, and since this county is right on the migratory path, I'm surprised I've never seen any here in St Petersburg, FL. I have seen a lot of them in NY and CT, though.
